Music download sites

Thank you for visiting ClassicsOnline. Our site is closed down until further notice since our technology partner ceased operating the platform used for ClassicsOnline. We commenced operations in 2008 and continue to believe strongly in an online quality service dedicated to classical music. We now plan to develop a new ClassicsOnline, using different technology and listening concepts. We cannot give you an exact timing for its launch, but we will keep you posted. In the meantime, we invite you to visit Naxos’ other music websites and join our other mailing lists – the easiest way to discover new trends in music, brilliant artists, and diverse music genres, not to mention free...

Downloading HD Music and Studiomaster Recordings The CD collection is ripped in 16 Bit / 44.1 kHz, the USB audio server is fully configured, and the connected DAC sounds great. What's missing is that little extra oomph of audiophile high-bit candy to get out that last ounce of dynamics and audio information so that you appreciate the advantages of High Resolution Audio (HiRes) in 24 Bit / 96 kHz or 24 Bit / 192 kHz or better. In the following, a selection of download links for Free HD Music Downloads - samples, high-resolution tracks and audiophile snippets in FLAC, WAV and more highres file formats HDtracks is the premiere online music store for audiophiles and serious music fans who...

It's likely that you have got one of the followings: iPod, iPhone, iPad, Mac. While iPad is mainly for videos and iPhone for telephones, we mostly use iPod to listen to music. Although it's convenient to purchase music from iTunes, there are ways to get music for iPod free. Here I collected a list of sites to download free music for iPod Touch/Nano/Shuffle/Classic, which work for iPhone 5s, 5c, iPad, iTunes (Mac/PC) or even MP3 player as well. Also, we can go to iTunes store for free music. But free songs provided by Apple iTunes are very limited. Smart guys also think of using YouTube to fetch free MP3 for their iPhone 5s (in the future) or other iOS devices. If you want to do so, this...

The Free Music Archive is an interactive library of high-quality, legal audio downloads directed by WFMU, the most renowned freeform radio station in America. Radio has always offered the public free access to new music. The Free Music Archive is a continuation of that purpose, designed for the age of the internet. It was launched in 2009. Every MP3 you discover on The Free Music Archive is pre-cleared for certain types of uses that would otherwise be prohibited by copyright laws that were not designed for the digital era. These uses vary and are determined by the rights-holders themselves ( please see our FAQ ) who feel that allowing a degree of free cultural access is beneficial not only...

Top free music download sites Music is more popular than ever, creeping into every part of our daily lives. Many people are choosing to go online for their music needs, getting it for free from radios and streaming services such as Pandora or Spotify. But what if your internet isn’t top of the range? What if you live in an area where a good connection is rare as a diamond? You’ll want to download your tunes so you can listen even when your internet is having a temper tantrum. Of course, it’s always good to pay for music to show your appreciation for the singers and songwriters. But there are many good, legal, free music download sites that can also be of use to you.

Sampling used to be a labour-intensive task, but with the rise of the internet, the sharing and distribution of small audio files became a simple task. While ‘90s producers had to sift through crates of vinyl to earn the fodder for their tracks, today’s artists have it simpler: with subscription services like Splice and providing all-you-can-eat sample plans, and tools like Loopmasters’ Loopcloud bringing millions of audio files right into your DAW to audition. And all this has been a boon for producers who can’t or won’t fork out for samples. Today, a simple Google search will turn out thousands of entries as a gateway to seemingly millions - or billions - of...

Someone once told me that ‘free’ doesn’t exist. Today it almost looks as if the whole world is trying to prove him wrong. Just look at MakeUseOf, the site you’re hopefully browsing at the moment. Where in the world can you buy a magazine with (currently) 1,754 articles for free? ‘Free’ does exist, and it’s brought to us through the internet. Last week we saw industry quality open-source games with Yo Frankie. This week, we’ll take a look at the audio visual side. Free industry quality movies are pretty scarce but free music can be found in many places. So, enter what in my opinion are the best sites to download free music. Not the torrent or...

Thanks to the internet, and various free music download sites, getting a hold of music has gotten easier than ever. People can get their favorite tunes with a simple click, ignoring whether or not the download is legal. Some people are honest to their bones, and support their artists by paying for the songs on iTunes or Amazon. One of the major bonuses of buying songs is the guarantee the songs will be high-quality and available to you forever on a variety of devices. But I know that some of you out there maybe can’t afford to buy all the songs you love. Maybe you just have too much love for an immense amount of music. Well I am here to tell you that you shouldn’t have to pick and choose...
